Ten minutes later... Bang! Andreu's body went flying out of the ring. Ron was victorious! Andreu lay sprawled on the floor, staring blankly at the ceiling, utterly despondent. He never imagined he would lose. Worse, he couldn't believe how easily he had been beaten. He never even managed to touch Ron's real body. Just one Nen Beast overwhelmed him, leaving him powerless from start to finish. "My era... is it over?" Someone passing by overheard and thought with amusement, Your era? What era? Medical staff hurried onto the scene. Meanwhile, Ron was awarded a key—he was now the Floor Master for the 239th floor. Unless someone else challenged and beat him, that position was his. Given how easily Ron defeated Andreu—whose strength was well-known—spectators were left with a solid impression of Ron's power. Moreover, he was only twelve, still in a prime growth phase. As time went on, he'd likely grow even stronger. How many people would dare to pick him in a Floor Master challenge? Most of them wouldn't. There were plenty of lower-tier Floor Masters to challenge instead. So, Ron's seat as Floor Master would be quite stable. That meant he had to "move house." Ron's previous luxury suite was reclaimed (though Nina's wasn't). However, on the 239th floor, there was far more living space. Ron wanted Nina, Sally, Shizuku, and Mistie to all move up there. Each person could have their own room, and the training area was also much more spacious. Any equipment they needed could be brought in at any time. They all gathered in a large living room around a table laden with a steamy hotpot. Seated were Ron, Sally, Nina, Shizuku, and Mistie. "Big Bro, how long will you stay this time?" Nina asked, tilting her head up at Ron. "Not sure," he admitted. "If nothing comes up, I might stay a while. If something happens, I might leave soon." Ron's next "trait-absorption" target was set: the Sahelta Union. He'd use Miyazton's investigation into the Red Tron group (both are part of the V5) as an entry point. By Ron's reckoning, absorbing that country's trait would produce a Nen Beast potentially on par with Natsu. For now, though, he was simply waiting for Miyazton's call. Until then, he intended to focus on training his main body. In the beginning, after learning Nen, Ron had primarily poured his energy into creating Nen Beasts. When he finished making Akutagawa, he settled at Heaven's Arena for a while, training his physical body so it wouldn't lag behind his Beasts. Afterward, he resumed Beast creation, resulting in Lampent, then Natsu, then Sasuke. Now his physical self had once again fallen behind their power level—not because he'd become weaker but because his Beasts grew too fast. "Nina, how many wins do you have now?" Ron asked. "Two," she answered. He nodded, turning to Sally. "Sally, did you get your Hunter License?" "Sure did." Sally held up a small card. A Hunter License gave its holder access to the official Hunter network, where they could find or hire other Hunters, as well as a safety net—if absolutely necessary, one could pawn it for up to 100 million Jenny. Though in practice, almost no one ever did that. Meanwhile, Shizuku quietly ate her fill of the hotpot, barely joining the conversation. It might explain why her figure was more... substantial than Sally's. After dinner, Ron received an invitation from Doppo, one of the TST (Ten-Shadows Squad) members. "Ron." "Doppo." Doppo looked at Ron, feeling conflicted. He knew Ron was strong, but only now did it fully sink in that Ron had surpassed him by a wide margin. The man Ron had beaten—Andreu—was not someone Doppo could defeat. But Ron had done so with ease. "His progress is just too fast," Doppo marveled. *"So this is a true genius."* Ron never quit the TST; it was a simple, low-obligation team that could help Nina and the others whenever he was away. But now Doppo also realized that Nina, Sally, Shizuku, and Mistie were themselves on a fast track: - Sally was already a C-level Nen user. - Nina and Shizuku weren't far behind. - Mistie had even greater potential. Among them, She was the most likely to reach A-level one day—like a Machi who chose a more direct battle path instead of focusing on healing. Off in a training hall, Sadaso pushed himself until midnight. Ron's triumph over a Floor Master fired him up. "I have to train harder, and harder, and harder!" He wasn't the only one—Killua felt similarly, being even closer to Ron in age. Killua himself was just one match away from earning the right to enter the 200th floor; one more victory and he'd be there. Previously, he didn't particularly care, as his father Silva had merely instructed him to get past 200. But watching Ron, he grew determined. *"If he can do it, so can I."* Suddenly, someone's phone rang.
